Biology & "Tuttle
Twins" Economics
"Tuttle Twins" Economics
In this economics class, students will be taught economic principles through the fun and engaging Tuttle Twins Teen series. This book series take difficult concepts and, through stories and analogy, makes them simple enough for a child to understand. This class will include interactive lessons, simulations, discussion and instruction. Some of the principles that will be covered include free market economics, entrepreneurship, inflation, the dangers of socialism, logical fallacies and much more!
The class will also include:
• regular P.E. games (2x/month)
• outdoor survival skills
• small in-class service projects once/month (including making toys to send to Africa and doing family history work!)
Biology
In the science class, students will:
· explore a variety of biology topics which may include animals, food chains, habitats, plant life cycle, the human body, ecology, cells, and genetics all from a Christian perspective
· explore topics through hands-on experiments and activities
· be challenged to think and reason to discover scientific principles during the experiments and lessons
· read story-like science readings to help make science come alive
· learn about some of the great scientists and how their profound faith underpinned their scientific discoveries.
Leadership and Science
Power of Stories
Science will come alive as students read engaging, story-like science books. They will also read the Tuttle Twins series and learn economic principles through interesting and memorable stories.
Hands-On Learning
Experiments will be a regular part of the science class. Group work and activities will also be incorporated into the economics class to engage the students and deepen their learning.
Service
Service will be a regular "rotation" twice a month. Students will "adopt a sibling" and read to younger students, learn basics of family history work, and other meaningful service projects.
